I just performed an upgrade from a standalone NT 4.0 to a W2K3
standalone using the upgrade tools and it worked great. My install was
a little different though as I used the integrated CD utilities to run
the import rather then the upgrade_import tool. The export part worked
like a champ though.

Subject: [FW-1] upgrade_export
I'm upgrading from NGFP3 (IPSO and a single SPLAT box) to NG AI R55.
First to go is the management server which currently is a Windows 2000
box.
I've already upgraded the mgmt server to AI and it works fine
afterwards, but I want to get rid of Windows and install it as a SPLAT
mgmnt server instead.
Q1: So just to make sure I understand this correctly, I run an
upgrade_export and FTP the files to a server, "trash" the Windows box
and install SPLAT on it, FTP the files back and then run upgrade_import
and everything is fine again? I know this is in theory, but....?
Q2: Will this process also import all licensing information or do I need
to reinstall the licenses?
Q3: Will I need to push the policy on the modules after upgrading, the
upgrade_guide.pdf document on p37 says this; I pushed the present W2K
R55 policy to a less important firewall, and while everything seems ok,
the following errors appears in the log:
Dec 28 13:38:34 FW [LOG_CRIT] kernel: set_timeout_to_MSPI_by_methods:
not in MSPI_by_Methods Dec 28 13:38:34 FW [LOG_CRIT] kernel:
set_timeout_to_MSPI_by_methods: not in MSPI_by_Methods Dec 28 13:38:53
FW [LOG_CRIT] kernel: FW-1: fw_runfilter: wrong number of arguments (0

kernel: FW-1: fw_runfilter: wrong number of arguments (0 != 2) to
function gtp_path_code (58)
Has anyone seens these? The pre_upgrade verifier tool just gave some
informational messages about some of the files which might have to be
manually edited after the upgrade.
